I have a strange problem I've never encountered in many years of working with CR.

When I export one report to a PDF, anywhere there is the letter "t" in the report text, it adds an "i" to it.  So "reports" becomes "reportis" and "rate" becomes "ratie" and so forth.

It does not appear in my design or print preview within Crystal Reports (XI), and it does not happen if I export to any other format other than PDF.  I have other reports that I can also successfully export to PDF without the extra letter.  I'm at a loss of where to even begin to look to correct this for this one report.

It is a very extensive report, so I'm hoping to find a solution that does not force me to recreate all the complicated cross tabulations and formulas.

Any ideas?

Okay, I figured out that it was the font.  The report was in Calibri (which my other reports are too) and when I changed the font of this report to Arial it no longer added the extra character.

It is still strange, though, because I'm able to export other reports in Calibri to PDF and it works fine.
